Before GFC, bigger company and better liquidity also lack of active coverage... Maybe its business model just doesn't excite too many investors looking for newsflow...

I see 377 sell orders at 29 against 1 buy order at 285 haha.

In general, fundamentals precede market interests. If the Management raises the dividend to 2.0 SG cents per share once all the vessels are delivered, I won't be surprised to see this Company trading at > 30 cents. Naturally, will they do it remains the million dollar question haha.

Naturally, will they do it remains the million dollar question haha. Based on the previous year's result, a EPS of 2.0 US cent per share is possible before considering Capricornus Leader and Centaurus Leader. We probably need to wait until 3Q results to know their contribution to the results. Probably we have to wait until FY2016 to get DPS > 2.0 SG cent when the newbuild's contribution is taken in for the full year. Once the DPS goes up, the share price will naturally follow.

Singapore Shipping Corporation Limited (“SSCL” or “the Group”) secures US$16.5 Million Term Loan Facility
http://infopub.sgx.com/FileOpen/SSC_Pres...eID=330585 [Press Release] 1) This will be used to finance the US$16.5 million acquisition of the second PCTC vessel (MV Centaurus Leader) announced in FY 2014. The vessel will be delivered in Jan 2015. 2) This is the sister vessel of MV Capricornus Leader which was delivered in Sept 2014 and contributed slightly to 2Q 2015 results. Both vessels are on 15 year charters with estimated revenue of US$12.5 million per year. 3) No news on the financing of the US$80 million newbuild acquisition nor its charter details. However, the banks have rated SSC "as conservative and undergeared" so I expect a loan financing agreement to be reached. Debt Profile of the Group: i) MV Boheme + Sirius Leader Debt: $16.9 million ii) Cougar Logistic Assets Debt: 0 iii) MV Capricornus Leader Debt: 0 iv) MV Centaurus Leader Debt: $16.5 million v) Newbuild Vessel Debt: Unknown (max: 80 million) vi) Cash: $3 million (Vested)

Found an article about how the some aspects of the RORO design makes it more prone to sinking.
Still, number of voyages that end without incident far outnumber the number of sinkings, as pointed out in the end of the article. http://gcaptain.com/are-roros-safe/ I assume that in the event of a sinking, the ship operator (SSC in this case) will claim from insurance. Can the charterer impose any penalty on SSC if it cannot find another vessel to fulfill the charter? Another unrelated question: Wikipedia describes a few types of chartering. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartering_%28shipping%29 I assume that applicable type for SSC is the "time charter", as described below: "A time charter is the hiring of a vessel for a specific period of time; the owner still manages the vessel but the charterer selects the ports and directs the vessel where to go. The charterer pays for all fuel the vessel consumes, port charges, commissions, and a daily hire to the owner of the vessel." That would mean that SSC will not benefit from the current drop in oil prices. As in, we cannot expect any decrease in the "Vessel operation and crew management costs". Please correct me if I am wrong, thanks! (vested) |
